pretty cool
Really helpful, tks
Oh my god apparently I'm in this guy's department at VT. Time to visit his office.
Did you visit him then..?
awesome....
Engineers aren't jealous of the fucking wings.
Engineers are jealous of the fact that they have this little thing called muscles, this funny piston-like mechanism that can produce extremely large amounts of energy just by being flooded with certain chemicals
the flexible metal is called nitinol not whatever he said
FYI Nitinol is a shape-memory alloy
I'm pretty sure he just described what nitinol is made of -_-
Its not really about flapping anyways, more about the aerodynamics of the wing shape. Efficiency and all that jazz.
Maybe they can build a plane to flap its wings hahahaha.
if you happen to know how the memory metal gets its original shape it would great if you could tell me cuz ive been wondering about that for a while now :) do they just melt it down and mold it?
If i was on a plane that moved like a bird i would probably barf on the guy next to me and shit myself
Interesting. Emerson (plugged-in)
Now you can take planes down with a remote control!
essas invenções são de inspirações minhas

Shape shifting, really out of star trek!
I don't think bird-like flapping could cause sickening because bird's body doesn't actually move when it flaps.
@nightblitzx It may be true if the plane is modeled after a swift. (best for a fighter jet). I'd bet future airliners would model after a soaring eagle or something that flies efficiently and steadily. When jet powered, they can do without the flapping. The flapping can cause sickening up-and-down movements. The engineers are smart enough to take the goods and eliminate the bads. In any case, a barf bag is always provided on airplanes. Though you have to worry about the underwear yourself. :-)

And some of us know Polymorphic Smart Materials are being dumped in our atmosphere.
metal period is over.... now it may material of products...
Looks alien technology.
wot is the name of those hair products...
WAIT WHO GOES THERE ohhh.. its just a jellyfish.
overcomplication
musica de enriques chia
@cplai lol true
spy on the bad guys he said :/
The guy reminds me of the joker.
he has pattens galore and mis-quotes Robert frosts most famous line in a poem... path less traveled, SERIOUSLY?!
or was that an intelligent copyright dodge, hmmm.
Why teachers didn't told me about this in school if this materials are known since 1950
"Told me" or " tell me"
@6:36 Apple Watch
thousands? lol
If human inspired by the birds to create that smart materials. then who Creates and designs birds to inspiring human?.. just wonder. #sorry for grammar nazi
